Love my Classic. It’s more like an abusive relationship but I still love it. It’s a rare-ish 1 of 400 Great Divide Edition. Motor has been updated from a 3.9 to a cammed 4.2.
Pic is of it towing my old Defender. I came to a point where I decided I needed to make a choice to keep the Defender or the Classic. I kept the…

The Speed City Broadcast podcast had a contest. I forgot I entered and 2 days before the race I got a call. That year at CotA a few people got to play honorary pit crew. I was lucky enough to get Mike Shank’s team. Ok, I had an easy job and didn’t go over the wall but I got to hang out in their garage all weekend and…

He really is. I was just an honorary pit crew member for a weekend. They decided to take a team photo with that amazing Justin Wilson memorial livery at CotA. I was standing off to the side and Mike waved me over and said “You’re part of the team today. Get in the picture.” That pic was on their official homepage for…

Former E60 owner here. Some days I think back on all the good times I had in that car and think I should get another. Luckily, on those same days I remember how it tried to bankrupt me towards the end.

I was lucky enough to play pit crew member for a day a couple of years ago with the Shank team when they raced Prototypes. They are a great bunch of folks and I hope they go far. I’m looking forward to meeting up with them all again when they come to CotA this year.

His voice is so soothing. It could make me listen to an entire video of him describing the inner workings of something as boring as a gas pump handle. And it did.

Our Jag spent more time in my garage than the mechanic’s.

It was actually quite swift. Kick off the TC and hit ‘Sport’ mode and it could scoot pretty well. Off the line I could launch unattended drinks into the back window(learned not to do that after the first time). In the time we owned it I had a couple of different kids in Hondas and such rev at me at a light. I guess…

Everyone should own a V-12 at least once in their life. Then sell it before it eats them out of house an home. Every once in a while I get a pang to own another XJ-12 then I remember what it’d cost to keep around and decide that it’s not worth it.

The first part of my statement was correct, they were the only two bombs at the time. I will admit to over-estimating the second part. My high school History memories are a few decades old now so I’ll blame it on old age.

Actually, the only two bombs the US had were the ones dropped on Japan. There was no third, no backups. If Japan hadn’t surrendered it would have been months before a third could be assembled.

Exactly, it’s not like he just said “Hey, guys, you know what? I was wrong, I want to unretire.” The team needed a driver over 25 years old after Bottas left and they called Massa. Massa is a genuinely good guy so of course he said yes(And who would say no to that? Except maybe Rosberg I guess). Think of it like a guy…

After the first bump of the barrier it looks like they were just along for the ride. It appears that the steering broke and was locked hard right.

Want to top the leaderboard even with a negative K/D? Get a squad that works well together and PTFO. Done. I play with several friends and we easily take 5 of the top 10 places every round and almost always one of us hits #1. My current K/D since release is just over 1. I’m not some lawnmower with a gun mowing down…

That car seems to be missing a giant wing and diffuser.

I’m wondering how many Drunken Master responses you’ll get.

What part of the country are you in?

:) Yeah, too new. I don’t like the windows in the B-Pillar on the later models. I like my blind spots to be able to hide 18-wheelers.

First new car we ever bought as newlyweds was a 1991 Amigo. We loved that thing. Drove it for 13 years all over the country. Offroading around Utah’s Canyonlands, Arizona, Colorado, California, and more. Only repair, beyond consumables, I had to do was a head gasket at around 100K miles. We’d go months without putting…
